Post Construction Cleaning
Construction and renovations often result in a mess, with demolition, installation, and leftover materials. An essential step before completing the project is post-construction cleaning. This goes beyond simple dusting; it involves the correct disposal of hazardous materials, cleaning new surfaces, and addressing safety concerns like loose wires or leaks, much like proofreading a book.
EcoPure Cleaning offers comprehensive post-renovation cleaning services. We collaborate with contractors to ensure a thorough cleanup, making your space livable and attractive.

Rough Clean
Rough cleaning takes place during or after construction and involves disposing of debris, scrubbing surfaces, removing labels from fixtures, and vacuuming the area. This process ensures the proper installation of new flooring and prepares the space for final touches.
During rough cleaning, all construction waste, such as wood scraps, drywall pieces, and packaging materials, is removed from the site. Scrubbing surfaces involves cleaning walls, ceilings, windows, and doors to eliminate dirt, dust, and stray marks left by construction work. Fixtures like lighting, plumbing, and appliances often have protective labels that need to be carefully removed without damaging the finish.
Vacuuming the area removes any lingering particles, leaving it dust-free and prepared for the next stage. Initial cleaning is essential as it sets the stage for detailed cleaning and decorative work that follows, ensuring the building is safe, clean, and visually appealing for its occupants.
Light Clean
The light clean phase is the most labor-intensive part of post-construction cleanup and demands the most equipment. Specific-purpose areas like restrooms and kitchens will be addressed. Installations such as toilets, sinks, windows, cabinets, and counters will receive a thorough cleaning. A rough clean takes place onsite just before construction work is completed. While not all construction sites need a rough clean, most do to some extent. After construction is finished, workers clear away trash, debris, and any hazardous materials left onsite.
Prior to installing the new floors, the cleaners may clean the plywood or concrete surfaces to guarantee a flawless and secure final installation. Scrubbing the walls, sweeping, dusting, washing interior windows, and preparing surfaces are also essential parts of the rough cleaning process.
The light clean phase is the most demanding part of post-construction cleanup, necessitating extensive equipment and meticulous attention to detail. This phase involves a deep cleaning of restrooms, kitchens, and other specialized areas, focusing on installations such as toilets, sinks, windows, cabinets, and counters. The rough clean takes place onsite shortly before the construction work is finalized. Although not every construction site requires a rough clean, the majority do to some degree. Once construction is complete, workers clear away trash, debris, and any hazardous materials remaining on site.
Prior to installing new floors, cleaners make sure that the plywood or concrete subfloors are clean and stable. The rough clean process also involves scrubbing walls, sweeping, dusting, washing interior windows, and preparing surfaces.
Final Clean
The last phase involves the clean-up process, where final touch-ups are completed. Our team will eliminate any dust or dirt and clean off smudges, fingerprints, and markings left from construction. Post-installation, kitchens and bathrooms need specialized cleaning of cabinets, countertops, fixtures, and appliances.
Walls and ceilings are cleaned to eliminate dust and stains. Floors are polished and waxed, and carpets are vacuumed. Ducts and vents are cleaned. Windows, along with their tracks and frames, are washed, and all trash bags are taken out.
Exterior Construction Cleanup
For projects that involve exterior construction, our team will conduct a comprehensive cleaning. This includes clearing away any outdoor debris, ensuring that caulking and painting are completed correctly, and cleaning the exterior windows. Occasionally, this step is combined with the light cleaning phase, depending on what suits your project best. If the construction was mainly indoors, an exterior cleaning might not be needed. Typically, an exterior clean is necessary for major renovations or new constructions. This phase sets the stage for landscaping and paving projects, which improve the property's curb appeal.
Nails and debris surrounding the home are cleared away. Exterior windows and doors are cleaned, and the area around the doors is swept to remove dust particles. Workers may also power wash the driveway and other paved areas. All exterior lights are dusted, and trash is taken away.
The post-construction cleanup company might offer extra services. Properties with existing wood floors often suffer blemishes during renovation or construction. Some cleanup companies offer waxing and buffing services for scratches and scuffs at an additional cost.
The time required for post-construction cleaning varies based on the project's scope. Cleaning after remodeling one or two rooms typically takes a day, while larger renovations might require two or three days. It's important for homeowners to arrange the cleaning right after construction finishes.
